Dietitian Pick Food Experience: Coconut & Almond Flours

Date: 12/3/2014
Time:  3:00 PM - 6:00 PM
Type: Demo/Sampling
Location: HealthMarket

Almond and coconut flours make a great addition to baked goods and are perfect for your friends and family who follow a gluten-free diet. Almond flour can be invaluable for anyone following a low-carb diet and is a good source of protein, fiber, vitamin E and magnesium. Coconut flour is lower in carbohydrates and high in fiber - a whopping 13 grams of dietary fiber in ¼ cup! Due to its high-fiber and low-carbohydrate content, coconut flour is a good substitute for regular flours for those who are living with diabetes. High-fiber foods may play a role in controlling blood glucose levels. You’ll get to sample some delicious baked goods using these flours.
